Clarice Leanna McCann

Clarice Leanna McCann, 90, of Carmichaels, passed away peacefully at her daughter's home on Monday, June 22, 2026. She was born on February 18, 1936, in Cumberland Township, to the late John C. and Grace (Wright) Fuller.

Clarice was a graduate of Cumberland Township High School, Class of 1954. That same year, on July 26th, she married her sweetheart, John Thomas McCann. Together they shared 57 wonderful years until his passing on August 5, 2011. For 22 years, Clarice served as the head cook of the Carmichaels High School cafeteria. She was a long-time member of the Sugar Grove Baptist Church in Greensboro.

A woman of many talents and interests, Clarice was an avid reader, enjoyed crocheting and needlepoint, and gardening. She was a 4-H Leader for the Pens and Needles Sewing Club, Farm Women, the Grange, and the Greene County Fun Squares. Clarice took great pleasure in square dancing, traveling as far as Hawaii to do so. The joys of all of these hobbies were surpassed only by the cherished time she spent with her grandchildren. She shared her love of baking with them, making both sugar cookies and orange cookies, as well as her rice pudding. 

Left to cherish her memory are her sons, Dennis R. McCann (Elaine) of Carmichaels, Thomas C. McCann (Michelle) of Waynesburg, Timothy W. McCann (Susan) of Claysville, and Gregory A. McCann of Waynesburg; daughters, Sioux A. Harbarger (Lane) of Carmichaels, and Dawn L. Wise (Larry) of Carmichaels; 19 grandchildren, Dennis R. McCann (Roianne), Courtney Chedester (William), Chasity Truely (Kelly), April Hixenbaugh (Chad), Jade McCann, Morgen Miller, Charity McCann, Krisann Berdine (Brian), John Lee McCann, Grace McCann, Christina McCann, Justin McCann, Travis McCann (Mikayla), Leanna Chess, Nathan Chess (Demi), Kolby Harbarger, Erin Harbarger, Vincent Wise, and Tabatha Kelly (Frank); 25 great-grandchildren; 7 great-great-grandchildren; brothers, Robert Fuller (Teresa Walters) of Carmichaels, and Bill Fuller (Joan) of Carmichaels, and several nieces and nephews.

In addition to her husband and parents, she was preceded in death by her son, Terry L. McCann; brothers, Donald Fuller and Frank Fuller; and daughter-in-law, Mary McCann.

She was cared for by her loving grandchildren, Tabatha Kelly, & Erin and Kolby Harbarger. The family would also like to send a special thank you to the nursing team with Amedisys Hospice.

In accordance with Clarice's wishes, following a private service, she will be laid to rest at Laurel Point Cemetery, Carmichaels.
